Very pleased to welcome pianist, composer, improviser and singer, Maya Dunietz to OTO for a three-day residency spanning performances of work by Alvin Lucier, Dieter Schnebel and Ethiopian composer Emahoy Tsegue Mariam Guebrou, to a night of improvised music alongside Yoni Silver and Tom White.
Maya Dunietz (1981) is a pianist, composer, creator of sculptures, installations and performances, combining singing, instrumentation and recording techniques with digital technologies and a varied array of materials. She merges different art fields into a single malleable mass. Her works are influenced by their spatial context; Dunietz has performed as soloist, composer and ensemble member with Meitar Ensemble, Saar Berger (Ensemble Modern), Bat Kol Choir, Hyperion Ensemble, Solistensemble Kaleidoskop, and others. Her works have been shown in institutions such as Centre Pompidou, Palais de Tokyo, Bemis Center of Contemporary Art, Fondation Cartier, Arnolfini Gallery, Reykjavik Arts Festival and many more.
